Key Responsibilities

Performance & Reporting

• Own the monthly reporting cycle: volumes, net sales, gross margin, A&P and overheads — ensuring accuracy, consistency and on-time delivery to senior stakeholders
• Build and maintain robust dashboards and financial models that translate complex data into clear, actionable insights for the business
• Lead variance analysis (actual vs. budget vs. forecast) and proactively identify risks and opportunities, with a clear point of view on drivers and recommendations
• Ensure data integrity across reporting tools and challenge figures when something doesn't add up

Forecasting & Planning

• Lead closing activities and trend analysis, coordinating with multiple finance and business teams to deliver reliable landing estimates
• Drive the Strat Plan and AOP processes for your scope — not just consolidating numbers, but challenging assumptions, stress-testing scenarios and ensuring alignment with business priorities
• Anticipate financial risks and flag them early, with mitigation proposals ready

Business Partnering

• Act as a true finance business partner to Marketing, Sales and Operations — embedded in the business, not just reporting to it
• Lead pricing and trade strategy analysis, providing financial guidance that directly informs commercial decision-making
• Independently build and present business cases to senior management, from framing the problem to the financial recommendation
• Influence decision-making at a senior level by combining financial rigor with strong business acumen

The criteria below remain indicative. A candidate with a different combination of experience and skills could also be considered.

• Master's degree in Finance, Business or a related field
• Minimum 6 years' experience in Finance or Consulting
• Previous experience in a large international company is highly valued
• Strong analytical skills and advanced proficiency in Excel; knowledge of Power BI is a plus
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work effectively in a multicultural environment
• Organized, rigorous, proactive and a strong team player
• Fluent in English

We are proud to promote diversity and equal opportunities within our teams. We believe that our differences make us stronger, and that an inclusive work environment supports our growth as a company, as teams, and as individuals. We therefore welcome all applications* while fostering an inclusive culture where everyone can feel they belong.

We have also chosen to remove inclusive writing from our job descriptions, as its complexity can create barriers for individuals with cognitive disabilities, including dyslexia, dysphasia or apraxia.

*All applications will be considered regardless of origin, background, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any other characteristic.
